Jan Jones was a professional acro pilot that flew one of those Extras. She used to come to our airfield to practice in the winter. One Memorial Day weekend in the mid-90's she was flying to a performance in NJ and lost her engine. There was a nice open field under her, but they were mowing it and she decided to make a low pass to warn the mowers. She made a low pass, pulled up, and stall/spun.

stall/spin after a low pass only ends one way, unfortunately.

In terms of locally, we had a memorial service for her at our airfield.

I wonder if she's related to the Tedeschi Food Shop store chain?

Special camouflage.

Any number of people selling photos can't recognize a Spitfire from a spittoon.
